Medical violence and the most vulnerable

Main Article Content

Martha Tarasco

Abstract

Medical violence can be pursued in different modalities and in different medical interventions. One example of it is obstetric violence. But in this article, it is intended that from all the patients that can receive violence, the embryos and fetuses are, the ones who are in a more vulnerable position, and therefore here, violence becomes bloodier.
